About This Site

This site is a collection of my art, music, game design, and other IP development work from 2006 to the present. Aside from acting as a showcase and personal journal, this site also features many articles and resources for budding Game Designers, Manga Artists, and Story World Developers.

About Me

I'm a professional game designer living and working in Vancouver. I created my first story world at the age of 12, inspired by an epic video game titled "Final Fantasy 6". Ever since then I've been passionate about creating deep compelling characters, imaginative universes, and inspiring stories. My ceaseless need for a creative outlet has taken me across countless mediums and art forms from manga art and story writing to music and games. Regardless of the form my expression takes, my central goal remains the same: "To push my creative limits and produce only to the best of my ability."
